Museum of History and Ethnography

The Gobi


Formerly the Aimag Museum and set inside the sports stadium, the collection here is well laid-out and worth a quick look. There is a good display on Buddhist art, featuring two statues of Tara, some fine old scroll paintings, and tsam (lama dance) masks and costumes.
